I am very dissapointed with this product, it contains an software glitch that is preventing me from using in on both Windows XP and my I Mac. I wrote an e-mail to customer support and never heard back from them. People who make this are located in UK, so I will try to reach them by phone and pay long distance...
Not happy.

This CD-rom provides a fun approach to learning basic Serbian vocabulary but it will not teach you any grammar. There are 9 subcategories (e.g., food, colors, numbers) and each section has multiple games/activities. My favorite feature is that you can record your voice and listen back while comparing your approximations to a native speaker. My Serbian friend says the pronunciations are accurate although he says that the female speaker on the CD has a "peculiar" accent so to listen more closely to the male speaker.
